Meta Reportedly Considering Layoffs Affecting Up to 20% of Staff
-

Meta is reportedly considering major layoffs that could impact 20% or more of its workforce, according to a report from Reuters.
The potential cuts could help the company offset heavy spending on AI infrastructure, acquisitions, and hiring as the tech industry rapidly pivots toward artificial intelligence.
Meta had nearly 79,000 employees as of late 2025, and while the company says the report is speculative, it would mark one of the largest job reductions since its previous layoffs in 2022–2023.
